Avatar f tn I do not agree with your doctor that kidney stones are not life threatening. If they get lodged in the ureter or block the flow of urine this is an emergency.

Avatar n tn Proteins from the blood can escape into the urine when the filters of the kidney, called glomeruli, are damaged. Inflammation in the glomeruli is called glomerulonephritis, or simply nephritis. This may be due to medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and other forms of kidney diseases. Because the protein has left the body, the blood can no longer soak up enough fluid and swelling in the hands, feet, abdomen, or face may be observed such as seen in your husband.
